Ontarios Action Plan to Transform Health Care
Ontario's Action Plan to Transform Health Care
Ontario recently launched an Action Plan to transform the health care system and deal with the demographic challenges as well as the province's deficit (see attached announcement). The Action Plan will ensure families get the best health care where and when they need it, while ensuring all Ontarians get better value for their health dollars. The Plan speaks to giving Ontarians better access to family doctors and nurse practitioners - through after hours care and same-day and next-day appointments. As a result of this announcement, TC FHT was approached by CBC for a televised interview and an interview for their Ontario Today radio show. Dr. Pariser did the televised interview on Jan 30 and the radio interview Jan 31. The link to the radio interview is below if you would like to listen to it.
